TRY TRY TRY Don’t go sayin’ that you got no time You wanna go steady then you change your mind Heaven only knows it’s the games you play Baby believe me don’t know what to say And I try and I try And I try and I try To share my love with you You wanna be together then you wanna be free You got no business holdin’ onto me Heaven only knows why you make me blue Baby believe me don’t know what to do And I try and I try And I try and I try To share your point of view Don’t go thinkin’ you got nothin’ to lose Baby you’re the winner you got me to choose Heaven only knows what’s around the bend Baby believe me I don’t understand Why I try and I try And I try and I try To share my love with you .

ANGEL OF MINE Show me the way to kneel down and pray Show me the way to heaven’s door Just like before ‘angel of mine’ Just like before ‘angel of mine’ Tell me your name, let the light shine Show me the way into your heart Never apart ‘angel of mine’ Right from the start ‘angel of mine’ We’re travellin’ on a wing and a prayer Lookin’ at the world spin around us We’re travellin’ on a wing and a prayer Climb every step to the top of the stairs Show me the way to kneel down and pray Show me the way to carry on Warm as the sun ‘angel of mine’ We’ve just begun ‘angel of mine’ .

Table For One 03:08

TABLE FOR ONE Sometimes when I go walkin’ in the rain I’ll think about the blue skies And the sunny days of Spain But until then, I’ll have to depend on my Table for one Somewhere on the other side of the world I’ll think about the big smile On the funny face of my girl But until then, I’ll have to depend on my Table for one It’s a new day at the café Just me and my little red rose A table for one, it’s no fun When she’s comin’ home nobody knows Sometimes when I go wishin’ on a star I’ll think about the good times That we’ve travelled with so far But until then, I’ll have to depend on my Table for one .

Wild Is the Wind 03:50
lyrics

WILD IS THE WIND The wind is a’cuttin’ through your bones It comes to take its toll Whenever you hear those distant moans Reach inside your soul Nobody knows when the cold wind blows Wipe away your tears Nobody knows when the cold wind blows To satisfy your fears Wild is the wind from some distant shore Wild is the howlin’ wind callin’ out for more Wild is the wind from the day you were born Wild is the child in you, the calm before the storm The wind is a’crashin’ on the seas Better get outta the way You know it can knock you to your knees Better get down and pray Look it around to see what you lost That’s the way it’s gone Gotta get back no matter the cost That’s how the battle’s won The wind is a’howlin’ in your head A’rustlin’ through your hair Must do what you can before you tread You gotta come up for air The wind can throw you off your tack That’s the way it goes Sometimes the wind is at your back That’s the way she blows .

ON THE RIVERBOAT QUEEN You gotta take a trip on the Riverboat Queen Down the Mississippi down to New Orleans You get your mojo workin’ from town to town You can’t see for lookin’ when the sun go down A lot of take and givin’, tryin’ ta make a livin’ On the Riverboat Queen You gotta take a trip to the Delta Blues A little boogie woogie and a bit of soft shoe We got Muddy Waters and B.B. King A Cajun band with a Dixieland swing A lot of take and givin’, tryin’ ta make a livin’ On the Riverboat Queen ‘Meet me down at the Crossroads’ The Devil says to Mister Jones ‘Meet me down at the Crossroads Guaranteed to chill your bones’ A lot of take and givin’ Ya gotta keep from sinnin’ on the Delta Blues You gotta take a trip on the Riverboat Queen Down the Mississippi down to New Orleans We got James Cotton and the Howlin’ Wolf You can’t see for lookin’ when the sun go south A lot of take and givin’, tryin’ ta make a livin’ On the Riverboat Queen .

SUNNY DAY BLUES Pretty baby won’t you be so kind Won’t you be my little Valentine Got your letter in the mail last week Heard the birdies go tweet tweet tweet Cupid’s arrow in my heart Be it come what may How in the world can we be apart On such a sunny day Pretty baby won’t you be so good Take me all the way to Hollywood Drivin’ around in your Cadillac car Keep on reachin’ for your star There sure is something in the air Be it come what may Like Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire Dancin’ on a sunny day .

WALTZ OF THE BLUES I remember the sound of your laughter Back in the days of our youth How we promised the here ‘n’ ever after Searching for all but the truth Oh how we broke all the rules out on the ship of fools We would dance to the ‘Waltz of the Blues’ I remember the sound of our footsteps As we crossed through the sands of time How we whispered our love for each other Beyond all reason or rhyme Now that you’re gone I must choose to carry on win or lose Let us dance to the ‘Waltz of the Blues’ Oh darling is it you there beside me Now as my days grow old In my heart I know you can guide me All the way in from the cold Now that we’ve paid all our dues Let’s put on these dancing shoes So we can dance to the ‘Waltz of the Blues’ Let us dance to the ‘Waltz of the Blues’ .
